lokisday:

No, but think about the psychology of Sigyn and Loki at his binding. He probably doesn’t get a lot of visitors. He’s in a cave and chained up. There’s nothing to see or touch. And there’s an acid faucet over his body.

If Sigyn leaves, he’s going to be in social isolation, sensory deprivation, and physical agony. Keeping her goodwill is pure survival. He cannot afford to be anything except what she wants from him.

So his first act on being released is to lead the destruction of the universe and I wonder

just what has she been whispering to him, all these centuries?

(I love Sigyn, but I hardly think she’s the Marian symbol of saintly forbearance and forgiveness I sometimes she her painted as. She’s a mother who unjustly lost a child, for Hel’s sake!)
